AH Revision March 21, 2012

Posted by seonagrobertson in : Advanced Higher , comments closed

Over the Easter Break and in the lead up to the final exam you should have a clear revision timetable drawn up.

Consider working through Past Papers http://www.sqa.org.uk/pastpapers/findpastpaper.htm?subject=Modern+Studies&level=AH

Revision cards, mind maps and quizing one another may also be useful.

Think about the strategies that worked well for you in S5 and build on them.

You have come a long way this year already. Now you must maintain the momentum to ensure you meet your potential in the final paper.
